Photography is an art form, a thoughtful process, and way to focus your creative energy as well as preserve memories.

Fitness trends come and go, but the health-improving benefits of getting up and getting moving will always remain! At the start of every new year, millions of people wake up full of a brand new energy and motivation to kickstart a fresh lifestyle – however, just about 8% of those people actually “achieve” their New Year’s resolutions.

Want to be one of the few who can take on the challenge and persevere through the year? We put together a few tips, tricks and workout videos that you can download from YouTube to help keep you on track with your 2017 goals!

1. Let the Good Music Flow

Step one of any good workout sequence is putting together the perfect music to fit the mood. Going for something angsty and tension-ridden to ramp things up? A pop-heavy playlist of uplifting tracks? Maybe a collection of seasonal classics? No matter your personal genre preferences, you can record music from Spotify, Apple Music, Pandora, Soundcloud, and more popular streaming sites and services, to create your own master list of workout hits.

Replay Music for PC is optimized to capture music and cut out other background noises, so your recorded tracks are saved as high quality MP3 files. Plus, the program perfectly separates songs into individual tracks, tags each song with artist, album, song, genre, album art and even song lyrics.

2. Tap Into Live Workout Routines

3. Customize Exercise Video Mashups

Once you find what you’re looking for, use Replay Media Catcher to record from Youtube and create your own custom workout videos to keep your routine nice and fresh. Here are some of our favorite channels and videos to build from:

If you’re anything like us, you can hardly go a day without opening up YouTube to watch a video online. Plus, with the cold winter season settled in and making us want to stay warm and cozy, it’s inevitable that YouTube is in for a boost in viewership. While the popular video streaming site makes it possible to watch videos on any topic, served up by folks from all walks of life, there are still more cool things to be discovered.

Ready for the most entertaining YouTube experience of your life? Check out our top tips, tricks and hacks to help kick your viewing up a notch.

1. Create an auto-lineup of your favorites

Have a few favorite YouTubers that you binge-watch again and again? You can create a meta playlist that holds ALL of the video uploads from a single uploader (in order of upload date, chronologically). To do this, just add “&list=UL” to any video URL on YouTube.

2. Conquer country-specific videos

Sometimes, YouTube videos can have restrictions based on geographic regions. That’s why you’ll get that “The uploader has not made this video available in your country” pop-up message when you stumble on a cool video from far away. Luckily, this trick lets you watch any video from any country.

3. Watch in HD mode all the time

High definition is ALWAYS better, but sometimes your Internet connection can get in the way. Unlock HD mode by adding a couple of secret codes to the end of your video URL. Get stereo sound and 480×270 resolution with “&fmt=18”, or “&fmt=22” for 1280×720 resolution.

4. Jump through age restrictions

We’re all for keeping PG-13 videos for more mature eyes only, but sometimes the age restrictions on YouTube videos can be bothersome for legal adults. Instead of signing in or clicking through to verify your age, just add “nsfw.” to the beginning of your entire video’s URL, so that it appears like this: nsfw.youtube.com

5. Hunt for all the hidden Easter eggs

Cleverly hidden in YouTube’s source code are secrets just waiting to be discovered and unlocked. Here are some of our favorites:

Search “Beam me up Scotty” and your results will show up like they were transported through space.

Repeat any video (forever!) by right-clicking on the video and selecting “Loop.”

Like old games? Type the numbers “1980” while your video is playing and the Missile Control game will appear.

An homage to the Wadsworth Constant, a meme that stated the first 30% of any video isn’t worth your time, you can enter “&wadsworth=1” at the end of a YouTube video URL and it’ll auto-skip the first 30% for you.

6. Access unique 360-degree videos

YouTube launched their support for 360-degree videos earlier in 2016, letting users have a complete view of key videos and live events. With Chrome installed on your computer, you can rotate around and see every angle just by using your mouse. On mobile through the YouTube app, a simple screen swivel can lead you into new 360-degree journeys.

7. Download videos & turn audio files into MP3s

Take your favorite videos with you, in any file type you need! With Replay Media Catcher, you can download YouTube videos with just one quick drag-and-drop movement and automatically convert YouTube to MP3, WMV, AVI and more popular file formats.

We spend a lot of time analyzing debug logs and frequently give customers a quick video to test, which means we’re often in search of short clips that end play a vital role in the data logging process. Needless to say, we watch a lot of videos (and other types of media) and want to share them with you!

We’ve all heard the saying: “new year, new you!” Whether you’re into the idea of fresh starts or not, resolutions are a pretty universal thing we all tend to think about when a new year begins. Trying to save more money but ALSO want to join a gym? This classic Jimmy Fallon clip shares the pros and cons of whipping up that list of resolutions for 2017.

Every year on December 31st, the eyes of the whole world turn their gaze to Times Square in New York City for the iconic Ball Drop. More than a celebration of the coming of a brand new year, it’s a 100+ year global tradition that marks the coming together of people from all walks of life.

Join the official host, actor and model Jonathan Bennett, along with two live correspondents as they offer up a totally commercial-free webcast of the activities and events surrounding the midnight Ball Drop, including behind-the-scenes access and interviews.

Be sure to use Replay Media Catcher to save every minute of the New Year’s Eve magic, recording the live streaming music performances, interviews, and of course the Ball Drop, in super high quality video!

Streaming media like music, movies and shows online has been around for decades now, but has reached new levels of popularity with the introduction of popular (often paid) services. As cable-cutting becomes more intuitive and budget-friendly, traditional cable subscriptions are increasingly more complicated and pricey. It’s a no-brainer why entertainment enthusiasts are choosing options for streaming media online.

Because no one streaming service is created equal (and can have frequently rotating collections of content), we created the software in Replay Capture Suite to save it all. If you can stream it online, you can record and save it forever, no matter the device or internet connection. Here are our favorite streaming sites to record media online:

Netflix

Soundcloud gained its popularity in the MySpace era of the mid-2000’s with their simple platform for musicians to upload and share music. Naturally, this also attracted a lot of listeners, and today the streaming site boasts over 175 million monthly users.

Replay Music is the most powerful way to record Soundcloud music directly to high quality MP3 files. Advanced recording technology captures only the music you want to hear, and never any system sounds or background noises.
